OK guys amd gals, I'm sure that I'm missing something in my searches, but I can't seem to find what size teh nut is that connects the EGR downtube to the exhaust manifold on a 99 SVT. I need to get it off to finish the headers. Anyone remember? I need to get the wrench, as the adjustable will reach, but won't leaave me room to turn it. :help:
 
Maybe if I had King Kong to turn them. :laugh: Seriously, I tried them, no go. Also tried adjustable wrench, even a pipe wrench. Just figured it was time to get the correct tool. Thanks, tho.
 
For future reference. Plasma cutter + cheap harbor freight wrenches = nearly instant wrench of correct length. If no plasma cutter you can use a cutoff wheel. You can buy the cutoff wheels, cutoff wheel air tool, and wrenches for less than $20.
